Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
Why is the Board completely female?

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
